The AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT Review, Feat. Sapphire Pulse: A New Challenger For Mainstream Gaming
by Ryan Smith on January 21, 2020 9:01 AM ESTGrand Theft Auto V
Now a truly venerable title, GTA V is a veteran of past game suites that is still graphically demanding as they come. As an older DX11 title, it provides a glimpse into the graphically intensive games of yesteryear that don't incorporate the latest features. Originally released for consoles in 2013, the PC port came with a slew of graphical enhancements and options. Just as importantly, GTA V includes a rather intensive and informative built-in benchmark, somewhat uncommon in open-world games.
The settings are identical to its previous appearances, which are custom as GTA V does not have presets. To recap, a "Very High" quality is used, where all primary graphics settings turned up to their highest setting, except grass, which is at its own very high setting. Meanwhile 4x MSAA is enabled for direct views and reflections. This setting also involves turning on some of the advanced rendering features - the game's long shadows, high resolution shadows, and high definition flight streaming - but not increasing the view distance any further.

Did you read the review? This card uses less power than the 2060 to match its performance and runs significantly quieter. Drivers get updated monthly, with new features launched already this year. Their market share at its worst is 25%.If you're just going to come here to post counterfactual crap in the comments, kindly piss off.

Their market share is 11.8% and continues to shrink. You would think with so many used mining cards being dumped on the used market for dirt cheap prices maybe it would go up. But people aren't buying the used AMD mining cards, they're buying used 1060s and 1070s. Even brokeasses buying used cards don't want AMD junk.Holliday75 - Thursday, January 23, 2020 - link
So shrinking from Q2 2019? Man I guess AMD lost 20% market share the second half of last year. Amazing."AMD saw its share of the graphics market surge in Q2 2019, with total shipments larger than Nvidia for the first time in five years. At the same time, Nvidia retains a hard lock on the add-in board market for desktops, with approximately two-thirds of total market share."

shipped =/= sold. And just look at the Steam hardware survey if you want to see the actual market share.Korguz - Thursday, January 23, 2020 - link
steam hardware survey.. should be taken with salt.. its not a 100% reliable metric... not every one has steam..sarafino - Friday, January 24, 2020 - link
Steam's hardware survey is fatally flawed, as it surveys internet cafes in China. The numbers are totally skewed and useless.sarafino - Friday, January 24, 2020 - link
